As the debate over illegal immigration continues, a new Zogby poll suggests the the American people don’t trust the governments ability to handle it. Apparently, millions of illegals demonstrating turns us off to the whole immigration thing. Indeed, the majority of Republicans and Democrats across all ethnicities and economic levels agree that the government will be totally ineffective in addressing the issue.

I will research the voting records of each Senator and Representative on each immigration bill. I will try to provide some commentary covering the pros and cons of each bill voted upon.

I would also encourage anyone registered to vote to write their congressman to tell them what you think, regardless of your opinion.

Meanwhile, I posted some comments regarding recent immigration protests over on Ethans site that were too good to leave off of mine!

When you turn on the TV, all you see is thousands of people waving American flags begging for “compassion”. So who is going to vote against “compassion”, right? The liberal mass media makes a nice loudspeaker, doesn’t it?

The problem is that millions of our own citizens (mostly high school dropouts and those with just a high school diploma or GED) who depend on the jobs that illegal workers take in order to survive. Unfortunately they aren’t protesting, writing to their congressman, etc.

The RIAA had its own loudspeaker: high priced lawyers.

In any democracy, the only thing that matters is the volume, not the idea.

The whole thread is here.

I wish I had a loudpseaker…….
